Does the product actually work in a 26" tire?

Yes, but one must understand the difference between a 1.75" and a 1 3/4" tire. They are not the same in the bicycle industry, even though the number sound mathematically correct. So, in essence if the rubber product states 26 x 1.75 and the box says 26 x 1 3/4, it will not fit. I clicked on the product that came with my question and it reads 20-x 2.125-Inch in which case it will not fit. It is a solid piece of rubber that does not stretch much, but get the right size and it is great. Just be careful about the sizing. For some reason unknown to me decimal sizes and fractional sizes are not the same in the bicycle industry. ??? Yes, but one must understand the difference between a 1.75" and a 1 3/4" tire.

Yes they do. They look way too big when you unfold them from the box. But they do fit. Have two of them on a garden cart with 26 inch bicycle wheels. Great for that application. But they ARE heavy. If used on a bicycle I do believe you would notice the weight.

It works great. I use mine with both my mtn bikes. Tire size 26 x 2.10 and 26 x 2.35. Most of the time I use it to stand up a bike in the garage but occasionally use it out at the trails to hold my bike steady while I remove or put my front tire on.

Hey...If the tires are too big, my guess would be that bike has 24" wheels...not 26".

Just Curious- If you want a tube for a 26x2.35 tire you need a tube that is 26x(range includes 2.35). Amazon's search engine will send you on a wild goose chase if you let it. This tube is not right for your tire. Jim

I dont think it will work in 26mm bars, it is intended to be used un 31.8mm bars, the adjustment is almost in the limit in my bike.

I mounted a 18 in wheel with a 29 in dia tire. It worked. The bolt pattern is adjustable.

I dont know if that type of wheel works.I have a 26 x 1.25 on there now and it works good. Maybe someone else could give you an answer.

There is usually a range of tubes that will work. Sunlite Bicycle Tube 26 x 1.95 - 2.125 from Amazon will do fine. 26" is the rim diameter and the other is the tire width. You also need to determine which valve you need. Schrader or Presta. Presta is the smaller one.The Schrader is the larger one.

I purchased a pair of 26" tires. That is what was specified and that is what I received. You should have no problem.

It's a function of rim width. My wheel is 26" x 1.125". The tires I replaced were oversized at 2.10" wide and even they fit on the 1.125" rim without a problem. If you're replacing a 1.90" tire with a 1.95 you won't have a problem at all.

I don't Think that it is a one size fits all product. I believe I had to give my size of tire before I purchased it.

Yes, the size of the tire is molded into the sidewall of the tire. It reads 26 x 1.75... I bought the same size that was molded on the old tire. I threw the box away so I don't know what the size said on the box, hope this helps

John, sorry for late response. Yes on the 26 in, but you will be pushing it on the 29 in wheel (it will fit but will not slide down the slots which allows for secure transport in case you don't tighten the skewers enough). As far as the width goes, the bars tapper down towards the base to about 3.25 in so 4 in wide tires are just not going to fit with wheel sizes 26-29 in. Michael

I am pretty sure that the Mr. Tuffy tire liners come in at least three sizes. I have a road bike so I ordered the liners that fit 700 - 23 tires. The liners actually overlap in my tire. I didn't bother to cut the liner shorter and I didn't notice any problem. Check for the appropriate size for your 26" x 1". And.... I have had no flats since installing them!

I am not sure. I kinda doubt it tho. I put it on a bike that has 24" wheels and could just barely do it. I guess it would depend on the size of the tires. It is designed so the bike sits straight up. On my bike the rear wheel/tire does not touch but on a "26 inch bike" it might be different. Sorry not much of an answer here.

I tried using the 26"x2.1" tubes on these tires to try to save money. I think the tube was too big cause the tire blew up. You need the right tube. I ended up getting 26"x1.5" tubes and it worked great. I did the Trans America three years ago on these tires, and only had one flat. I still have these tires. They wear very well.

I am not sure if this will work. The tube fits easily over a 27" rim. There may be enough to stretch it to 28. The mounting of the tire would be more difficult because the tube would not be down inside the tire. This is not and ideal scenario.
